Ok, I'm in need of serious psychiatric help. I went back and watched The Eleventh Hour yet again, this time on Netflix instead of BBC America. I thought something was missing and I was right. The show has a 1:04 run time on Netflix, they cut somewhere close to 20 minutes out of it. The version I recorded on BBC America left out the whole bit of Prisoner Zero saying "Silence will fall" and a ton of other little (and not so little) bits. Based on that, I wonder what we've missed from the three episodes this season?

I haven't missed anything, though that is because my wife downloads the episodes broadcast on BBC, not BBC America. "The Eleventh Hour" was indeed a longer episode. The others were standard 40-45 minute run time. So you should be good.

BTW, I went back and re-watched "The Eleventh Hour" after you mentioned it, and indeed Prisoner Zero mentions several things that seem to make sense now, Padorica will open, silence will fall, etc.

So who stole who? I also like the way she confirmed how she always takes him where he needs to go, rather than where he wants to go. I've always suspected as much, I'm sure others have as well.

The Doctor stole her. That's an established part of the show's canon since at least the 4th Doctor, maybe farther back.

The whole bit about taking him where he needs to go makes me wonder about when the 4th Doctor dropped off Sarah Jane at the end of her last trip in the TARDIS. Maybe the TARDIS was a little jealous of Sarah Jane and that's why she wasn't left in the proper city.

Yes, technically that is true, but Sexy said that she stole a Timelord (him). The door was unlocked, she implied that she unlocked it, essentially luring him in and setting him up to steal the TARDIS, but from her POV it was she whole stole a Timelord.

What a fun episode. In Doctor Who Classified, they talk about what this will mean for the Doctor and his relationship with the TARDIS, how this will change the dynamics of that relationship. It will be interesting to watch.

I got a real laugh over the whole "Pull To Open" and how he has been pushing for 700 years.

The only reason I got that is 'cos she knows her way around the TARDIS as if she were one with the machine. Or... is Amy's baby River?

I'd bet on River being Amy's baby before her being an incarnation of the TARDIS, but I'm thinking that the child in the spacesuit would be Amy's baby first. I'm also near certain that the child wasn't River. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I loved that. I think "Pull to Open" is technically for the phone and not the box itself, but it was still great seeing the Doctor's reaction.
